Chapter 1066
After the subordinate assured them, Lola felt more relaxed and confident. Logan called her over to takea seat at the sofa, telling her, “No problem. You don’t need to worry about the situation. It’s going to besettled soon.”
He sounded like he was the one doing the repair job. Still, she stood at the entrance and watched onfor a bit before taking a bottle of water from the fridge, which she handed to Logan. He took the bottleand weighed it in his hand. “What about your boyfriend? Why didn’t you give him a call?”
She leaned against the sofa and finally sounded calmer. “We haven’t put a label on our relationship yet.During the blind date, we got along well, but we didn’t have any chance to learn about each other.That’s why I could not ask him to help me.”
Before this, she had called a few colleagues for help, but they were either working overtime or weredealing with some issues at home. Also, some stayed too far away from her. To be honest, Lola did notwant to bother Logan. However, after considering her options, she realized that her friend circle wastoo small and she could not find anyone else to help her.
Logan scanned her place and thought that it looked like a typical apartment of a single lady. Then, heopened the bottle and downed half of the water before standing up. “What a surprise! I didn’t know thatyou are good at home making.”
She replied humbly, “No, that’s not true. Don’t you think my place looks very simple compared toyours?”
He shook his head. “No, that’s different.” However, he did not elaborate on what he thought wasdifferent.
A moment later, Logan walked around in the living room and even invited himself to tour her bedroom.Her bedroom was not spacious. It was just enough for a bed and a wardrobe, but it was very tidy andcosy. On the top of the night stand stood a vase with two stalks of fresh roses. One could tell from theflower vase placement that Lola lived her life passionately. Then, she joined him and leaned against thedoorframe with her arms crossed. “By the way, I’ve always been curious about this. Did you get toknow Sophia through John?”
She remembered the time when she received a report regarding some illegal business at Logan’sclubhouse. After that, she went in for a sudden inspection with her colleague. They found Sophia andLogan playing poker at the clubhouse without John around. John was later called to the clubhouse bySophia.
At first glance, she noticed that Logan was very close to Sophia. He did not seem to treat her like afriend’s wife. In response, he shook his head at her question. “No, I knew Sophia earlier, but notthrough John.” At some thought in his head, he grinned and his voice softened. “I befriended those twoseparately.”
Lola stole a glance at him and nodded. “I was asking only because you look close to Sophia.” novelbin
Logan explained, “Her personality goes well with mine. I can have fun with her. After all these years, Ihave yet to make any good female friends. She is considered my first.”
Lola curled her lips and asked him again after a while, “What about your girlfriend? How long have youknown her for? I observed your interaction with her that day and it feels that you have not known her forlong.”
When he heard that, he turned around to look at her in surprise. “You have a good eye for people. It’strue that I have not known Jasmine for long.”
Technically, he had only known Jasmine two months ago. It happened during a drinking session withhis friends. They brought their girlfriends, and their girlfriends invited Jasmine over. That was the storybehind his encounter with Jasmine.
